Oooh, wouldn't like to see the fallout if that actually happened. It's interesting about the Arabic and Russian, maybe they have some sort of shared ancestry? I know very little about the orgins of any languages other than European, but it's fascinating. And with german syntax? Considering how confusing that can be I'd be very interested to hear that :)
It always does. Things only become valid and serious once it becomes populated with men, as if doing humanities or not having a Y chromosone made you less intelligent. In Britan, there is a big push to get more girls into science degrees, but that still doesn't change the fact that attitudes and preconceptions are still against them, and against supposedly "less prestigous" degrees. Sorry, bit of a rant, but anyone who claims we're living in a world or societies without need of feminism is completely blind.
